<p>PURPOSE:To suppress tool replacement and additional work to their minimum and to reduce the load of a master computer by providing the titled device with a tool pot number converting data forming means, a tool replacement/ additional data forming means and a working program converting means. CONSTITUTION:A cell control device 2 compares tool file information 6a with working information 8b, and when tool names are the same and tool pot numbers are different, forms tool pot number converting data 13 for correcting a working program. When a tool name exists in the information 8a and does not exist in the information 6a, the tool name is inputted in an empty pot in the information 6a, and if there is no empty pot, a tool name which is not included in the information 8b is inputted to form tool replacement/addition data 9 for replacing a tool in a tool magazine by a tool in a tool center 5. After ending the data formation, a working program 7b is read out and written tool pot numbers are successively searched on the basis of the data 13 to convert the tool pot numbers.</p> |
